"I guess they learned a lot about me. Hot-headed and quick to scream and fight."

You leech off that boy as well as I do Draconis.""Yet I have no choice, and in return I give him the power to protect him. You simply take his power and use it for your own personal gains willingly, while I shall die if I do not. You are far worse than I, Charon."

"Hmm... Not again. The leaf seems to be filled with moles since before the last Shinobi war, and before that. I hate how everything is like this. Alright, so we both have moles in our villages. Since I'm too pissed off to think of anything good very fast, what have you got?"

Coren got angrier as he said "Are you insane? I mean really, we're gonna use the Exams!?! The entries are just kids!"

"...Damnit." Coren sighed and said "Yes. Yes I do. However, that was the Kyubi, and an Uchiha."

"Fine. But if those Genin are killed, I will pay you back for this. Understand?"

"All right. I hope the Mizukage will agree to everything." Coren started pacing wondering if the Raikage had any other things about the Exams or if their meeting was finished.

“He will.” Kotaro said. “With the Raikage out in the open, it will be too good a chance to miss. The wind will attack.” He smiled. “And will set up a barrier jutsu to trap me as they invade. Just as Orochimaru did years ago. But I will be prepared.”

"Hmm... I don't like this plan. I will go along with it though. Just make sure that you're ready. When are the Chuunin Exams to take place?"

“2 weeks.” He said holding up two fingers. “Enough time for the villages to send their ninja. My village will have been repaired by then.” He looked at the Hokage. “I trust you will allow some of your ninja to hide in my village at the time and ambush the wind.”

"Of course. The more Shinobi we have there, the better chance we have to defeat them. I should get to the paperwork involved if there's nothing else."

"..." Coren sighed and said "Fine. I get the really odd feeling that you're not gonna listen if I try to convince you otherwise." Coren then turned around with a small grin on his face "Just remember to hold back."

Kotaro gave a smile then turned and walked away. As he neared the camp, an Anbu jumped next to him. “Sir, the Mizukage will be tough to persuade.”

Kotaro shook his head. “He's stubborn, but smart. He will realize what must be done.”

The Anbu removed its mask, revealing the face of a woman with a small scar over her eye. “Lord Raikage, I ask you not as a servent, but as your friend, why are you so interested in the Kage's of the leaf and Rain?”

Kotaro stopped walking and sighed. “Raze, we have been friends since we were children. The reason I am so intrigued is because they are each part of a clan that we fought during the war. Bad blood still runs between us, yet they wish to end it.”

Raze moved her short brown hair from her face. “Raikage-”

“You can stop the formalities Raze.”

“Kotaro,” She corrected. “I am worried about your trust with them. We don't know what agenda's they harbor.”

Kotaro gave a chuckle. “Still trying to look out for me, eh Raze.” He turned to her. “There is no need to worry about me Raze.” He raised an eyebrow. “If you wish,I can have you assigned as my guard during the exams.”

Raze gasped but then gave a slight smile. “Thank you. I won't let you down.”

“You never have.” Kotaro said smiling. “Now, you should be getting to bed. We can talk further in the morning.”

Raze smiled and nodded. “Thank you.” She put on her mask and jumped away as Kotaro walked to his tent.
